BERESFORD IN A BOX.
He Uses Royal Signals for Pri
Vate Message and Resigns.


vate Message and Resigns.
LONDON, July 26.-Lord Charls Beres-
ford, who resigned to-day, has been
requested to withdraw his resignation.
The excuse for the resignation was a
minor breach Of etiquette at Spithead
during the naval review last Saturday.
when private signal made by Lord
Charles from the royal yacht was con-
Yerted into a public signal. 1t is de-
scribed as follows: While the queen
was reviewing the captains of the feet
in the saloon of the royal yachts Albert
and Victoria, Lord Charles Beresford,
who was On the yacht, signalled to the
Enchantress, aboard which his wife
was, the following message:
Tell Lady Charles to go Immediately aboard
the yacht Lancashire Witch, where | will
join her.
The captain of the Enchantress when
the signal was given thought of course
it was special royal command, but as
the message was slowly spelled out he
became greatly enraged. He tried, how
ever, to smother his feelings, not daring
to report Lord Charles in view of his
position as lord of the admiralty. The
captain could not refrain, however, from
complaining privately to his friends, and
in this way a reporter of the Times
learned of the incident. The result was
the publication of the whole story in
Mondays issue of the Times. Lord
Charles then had no option but to re-
sign. The incident is believed to be un-
paraIleled. Disciplinarians declare that
Lord Charles conduct was virtually
gross insult to the queen. The perIna-
nent officials of the admiralty, it is said,
are delighted over the position in which
"Reformer Beresford' is placed by the
affair.

A MEMORIAL TABLET
To Iowa Citizens Who Served in
the Expedition to Spirit Lake.

Special to the Globe.
DEs MONIES, To-, July 27.-The me-
mortal tablet erected by Hamilton
county to perpetuate the names of those
of her citizens who served in the expe-
dition to Spirit Lake, under Maj. Will
lam Williams, in March, 1857, will be
formally dedicated at Webster City,
Aug. II, at p. IN. Great preparations
be run, and the probability is that the
pretty county seat of Hamilton county
will be thrOnged with strangers. Gov.
Larrabee has accepted an invitation to
preside, and speeches will be made by
the surviving members of the eXpedi-
ton, viz: Ex-Gov. G. G. Carpenter,
Gen. Charles B. Richards, Hon. John F.
DuncOmbe, w. K. Laughlin, Michael
Sweeny, John N. Maxwell and others.
A statement by Mrs. William Church will
be read by Mr.. Charles Aldrich. Each
speaker has been requested to reduce
his remarks to manuscript so as to ia
cilitate their preservation for historic
material. The tablet to be erected is
one of the finest and most beautiful
historical monuments ever set up in the
West, and it is designed to cOmmemOr-
ate the courageous acts of body of
men that have never been surpassed in
frontier life. 1t is the tribute of Hamil-
ton county, given sin grateful memory
of the hOroic volunteers in the Spirit
lake expedition, commanded by Maj.
William Williams, of Fort Dodge, for
the relief of the settlers who survived
the Indian massacre of March to 13.
1872 The tablet is of polished brass,
obIong in shape, richly and deeply ell
graved. AT either side is an upright
panel, in which is received a palm
branch, symbolical of victory. Extend
ing across the upper part is the sentence
quoted above; and just below this is an
other panel, in which is engraved in
large letters, ''Roster OF Company c."
Then follows the names of officers and
privateS and below these the following:
This tablet was erected at the public eX-
pcnse to commemorate the patriotism,
yalor and sufferings of these gallant
men in one of the seeerest marches re-
corded i'm border warfare. In memory
also ofuArs. William L. Church, who
shot an Indian while defending her
babes, and of her sister, ,DruScilla Swan
ger, who was severely wounded. The
tablet is received against background
of gray Champlain marble. The memo
rial, which is very beautiful one, was
designed and executed by New York
artist, and is expected to withstand the
wear of the elements for a thousand
years, if no accident happens to it.

BIG STONE CITY, Dak., July 26.-The

Morse building is a total loss, but no
one could be found last night who
knew what to place the loss at. The
fire did not reach the lower floor,
occupied by the Big Boston, but the
water did and stood two feet deep on
the floor. The insurance upon the
buildings could not be learned, but it is
known that they were well covered.
Capt. Bob York, of hose company No.
>, was struck by a falling piece
of glass, which imbedded itself
in his flesh just under his right shoul-
der-blade. The wound inflicted is not
dangerous although painful. Mikel
Markalit, an Italian about thirty-five
years of age, stood in the middle OF
Nicollet avenue near Washington ave-
nue., when Chief StetsOn came
tearing along at a break
neck pace. He paid no attention
to the furious ringing of the chiefs
gong and the shouts of the people on
the sidewalk, and was knocked down
by the horse. He was picked up and
taken to the st. BarnabaS' hospital in
the patrol wagon. Ills collar bone was
found to be broken and he received in
ternal injuries which are thought to be
serious

SHOT DEAD.
A Burglar Murders the Driver of
a Street Car.

d
Thomas TOlaffson, a driver on the
Plymouth and Cedar Avenue Street
Car line, Minneapolis, was shot and
killed at 1870 o'clock last night as he
was leaving the turn table at
the corner of Lake street
and Cedar avenue, preparatory to
leaving the car at the stables, at the
corner of Cedar and Franklin avenues.
Who the murderer is is unknown, but
the object for which the crime was COM
mitted was evidently robbery, as
his cash box, containing $50.
is missing. Julius G. Heyn
residing at 30O9 Cedar avenue, heard the
shots and the driver cry out. He also
noticed a man running from the
car in the direction of Layman'S ceme-
tery. Suspecting something was wrong,
he ran after the car, but chased it
three blocks before he overlook it.
When he did he found Tollafsen lying
